Some shots from my recent exhibition
-
Chinatown, Singapore. Poor and homeless people are an uncommon sight in the streets of Singapore, but at Chinatown, there are many people who have no place to live and sleep. This picture shows one of them near Chinatown Complex in Chinatown. Taken with a Sony F717.
Taken in the Suzhou Industrial Park Area, China. This picture shows a peculiar scene of a man sleeping on a bench with in a weird posture while an old lady (and grandson/daughter) stares. Black and white for effect, taken with a Nikon D100.
Benjamin Sheares Bridge, Singapore. With the many pictures of the Singapore cityline available, I decided to do something different with the composition and effect. The light was fortunately where it should be, and the colours from that bridge were simply stunning given the clean and unpolluted air of Singapore. Taken with a Sony F717.
Another scene which I had to avoid cliche shots of, the Pearl of the Orient is the most noticable tower in the Shanghainese cityline. Most have seen it from postcards and tourism advertisements, but this one was intentionally made abstract. The orange gradient was caused by positioning the Sun behind the tower. Taken with a Nikon D100.
I have more photos that have been put up on exhibition (16 in total), but here are just some of it. Hopefully you'll enjoy them.

Ever tried HDR?

High Dynamic Range? Not really, I've seen tutorials on them, but I realize that their applications are somewhat limited. Perhaps one day I should?Originally posted by LazerLordz:Ever tried HDR? -

Meridian Junior College, Art and Crafts Room.
It's a school exhibition-cum-competition. The second shot won first place. Are you a photographer by profession, Lazer?
ps. Sorry about the slow reply. It seems that there's a 5min rule for all newcomers. -
Me? It's more of a hobby for me, although I do the occasional freelance.Originally posted by PointBlue:Meridian Junior College, Art and Crafts Room.

Thanks a lot, daniel! You can find a lot more talented photographers at http://www.clubsnap.org/.Originally posted by imDANIEL:youre a nice photographer
Indeed. Being a street and travel photographer makes you observe things more. And part of that requires you to witness the poverty of any nation. Sad reallyOriginally posted by mhcampboy:image snipped[/img]
This is so sad...
That's what happens when you have an ageing population and a nation with an overburdened economically active workforce.
That's great! You have any works posted online?Originally posted by LazerLordz:Me? It's more of a hobby for me, although I do the occasional freelance.
New member rule.. yeah.
The new member rule is precisely the reason why I'm taking a longer time to review and format my posts. Kind of funny actually, as I usually post oneliners in my other forums that I frequent. -
There was a link with some of my photos littered around..
